Begin fighting the brother (and anyone allied with him) in bloody combat. You have a full complement of equipment to utilize. Note that when fighting Horst, attacking him as a primary target is better than elongating the battle by removing his shield mercenaries first, unless you want the XP; as combat concludes when you whittle Borsodi’s health down to almost naught. Once your chosen Borsodi is brought to his knees, the following occurs:
PLANS #2A and #2B: EWALD’S LAST STAND
After a withering display of sword prowess, you bring Ewald Borsodi to the ground. Horst mockingly crows victory, offering to forgive his brother if he kisses his ring, and acknowledge Horst as the head of the family. Refusing, Ewald tries a knife plunge, but misses and this results in him being struck into a bloody pulp until you intervene. Horst stops, but only temporarily, grabs at Ewald’s knife, and plunges it in. Ewald gurgles his last breath. Now for a spot of unfinished business.
